Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -In the last of the Piagetian stages, a child becomes able to reason not only about tangible objects and events, but also about hypothetical or abstract ones. Hence it has the name formal operational stage-the period when the individual can “operate” on “forms” or representations.

Detailed explanation-2: -The formal operational stage (12+ years) In this final stage of cognitive development, children learn more sophisticated rules of logic. They then use these rules to understand how abstract concepts work and to solve problems.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Formal Operational Stage. At the age of 11, children enter the formal operational stage. Abstract thought characterizes this stage. Children can think about abstract concepts and are not limited to a current time, person, or situation.
